Batteries are looking more and more attractive. Hopefully they have a bit of a price dip soon and I might jump on the bandwagon.
I don't like to think what our electricity bills would look like if we hadn't installed solar 3 years ago.
This is my mindset as well. I went with the biggest PV system I could about 6 years ago, if I were installing one now I'd spend the budget on a battery and a smaller system to suit. A lot of my energy is sent to the grid at 8c/kw, the last quarter I produced 3x more than I used and still received a $300 bill. I'd rather produce a bit less and capture the excess during the day while I'm not home.
